Hologic Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System

Superior Imaging
The Hologic Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System allows pinpoint subtle lesions and faint calcifications – including those that may only be visible with tomosynthesis, with the 3D™ biopsy option.

• Allows you to easily target lesions, including those visible only in tomosynthesis images.
• Streamlines procedure steps and speeds targeting, resulting in improved workflow and shorter patient procedure time.
• Reduces patient dose, as fewer exposures are required.

The Hologic Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System provides: Technological innovation. Improved patient care. Advanced breast health solutions. That’s what the Hologic Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System delivers. To further support breast health intervention, the Hologic Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System features:

• The proven direct-capture detector in your Selenia® Dimensions® or 3Dimensions® mammography system ensures that you can biopsy lesions found during screening with certainty.
• A large field of view for high-resolution stereotactic 2D or 3D™ images simplifies visualizing suspicious areas.
• Automated tube-head positioning for both 2D and 3D™ imaging eliminates the need to manually adjust the X-ray tube location, helping accelerate procedures.
• Intuitive design, simple touchscreen controls and clear displays of safety margins make it easy for mammography users to quickly learn interventional procedures.
• Access challenging lesions with the optional lateral arm accessory. It installs quickly to present the needle parallel to the detector – especially valuable for thinly compressed breasts.
